Winter Steam Gala - January 2017

The annual Winter Steam Gala at the Great Central always forms one of the first major events of the year, and 2017 proved no exception. Unfortunately the event was marred on the Saturday by rain and then some very heavy showers, challenging conditions for photographers, videographers and crews alike.

Visiting this year was the Bluebell's Q class 30541, and semi-permanent resident 70013 Oliver Cromwell put in a performance prior to resuming duties on the main line.
